She was a woman
Cherish her gilded cage she was told
She was a woman
Forget the girl she was before she was sold
She was a woman
But she was also the girl who was still waiting for her Hogwarts letter
She was a woman
But she was also the girl who still made a wish at 11:11 no matter
She was a woman
But she was also the girl who still wanted someone to hold her when she cried
She was a women
But she was also the girl who still wondered about the places she would go if she had been a boy and don't have to hide
She was a woman
Who missed the girl who painted her nails different colour everyday
She was a woman
Who missed the girl whose Dad would buy her anything she put a finger on right away
She was a woman
Who missed the girl she was
She was a woman
Who missed the girl she would have been
She was a woman
Who would rather be another species of human being
She was a woman
And she still is one
